Zaphod

Heinrich Van Den Berg

Sporting his own radio collar, the Whiskers' former dominant male is now a swinging senior. Zaphod bounces back and forth between the Whiskers and the Aztecs, led by his rival daughters, Rocket Dog and Maybelline. Unfortunately for them, dear old dad seems determined to ruin their love lives by chasing off any eligible rovers who come calling.

After Flower died, Zaphod tried a bit of roving himself but soon realized the old general didn't quite have what it takes to be a speed dater anymore. Now he's content to kick back with the family and give advice on how to rule the Kalahari when you're only 12 inches tall. And sometimes, just for fun, he hits the town with his boys looking for love in all the wrong places.
